A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
2.0
There was a lot of hype about this series on Bookstagram accounts so when there was a limited time deal to purchase the ebook for $1.99 I figured I would just get it and see what it was about. I liked most of this book, the story was unpredictable at times but still predictable at other times. I felt like it dragged on a lot and the graphic scenes were not to my liking. I'm not a huge "steamy romance" novel type of girl so that was a major part of why I gave a lower rating and why I will not be continuing the series. I have heard that the following books are way better but I just prefer not to read books with those types of scenes. I'm actually shocked this is listed as a teen book because it is definitely not appropriate for teenagers to read.

I honestly don't know why people love this book so much. My guess is that they liked the movie and just assumed the book had to be better. For the first time ever I have to say the movie was better than the book. I definitely would not recommend this book to anyone. Just watch the movie.

I'm mad that I watched the movie before reading the book. I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more if I hadn't gone in with such high expectations.
